I am NOT gonna post any lyrics. Don’t wanna think of them. All. Day. Long.
Proud To Be An American- Lee Greenwood. The sappiest pandering lyrics ever. Every Fourth of July. That’s way too often for this utter piece of dreck. I want to vomit on Lee Greenwood’s head when I hear it.
Lay Lady Lay- Bob Dylan. The way he drawls out the word “bed”. Not that I hate the song so much, but his delivery. Never heard anyone cover it, (Get it?) but I don’t wanna. Don’t bother with links to any- I’m not listening.
Another vote for Red Red Whine. (Yes, I spelled that correctly) Also Little Drummer Boy. Best thing that happened to it was Bing Crosby and David Bowie.
Oddly, I can still listen to most of the songs on here sometimes, but these make me leave the county.
The truth is, I feel sorry for him, because I saw his youtube videos from before he was famous-- the same things that some producer saw and decided to turn him into Johnny Bravo. He could be on a whole different path. I mean, I think he could be doing something like going to Indiana University School of Music and studying guitar performance, or something. I knew Josh Bell in high school (our families went to the same synagogue, and I was friends with one of his sisters, even though Josh was actually my age), so I’ve seen musical genius when it ISN’T mishandled.
Now, I don’t know from a couple of videos that Bieber is a genius of the Josh Bell caliber, but he is very talented. I also don’t know that he’s past all redemption, but I don’t know if the public will accept him as anything else but boy-band Bieber now.
Josh is a great guy, if you want to know. The whole family is really nice. I remember hearing him practice when I was over at the house hanging out with his sister. He was a young teen, and he already sounded like he should be filling concert halls. He played at the synagogue a few times, and he played at IU when he was a student, even though he was already relatively famous. I was a student at the same time. I actually haven’t heard him play for a while, but he signed a CD for my SIL for a gift. I asked him, if I sent him one, would he sign it and send it back if I included an envelop (I figured he’d just vaguely remember me as one of his sister’s friends), but he answered by sending me a CD that was already signed.
I know what you mean. I hate the song “Chantilly Lace” so much that even though I already mentioned it, and then someone else mentioned it, I’m mentioning it again.
Remember the show Name that Tune, where contestants bargain to see who can name a song in the least # of notes?
I can hit the radio to change the station within 3 notes of any u2 song coming on. Worst. Band. Ever, by 3 or 4 orders of magnitude.
That & “Turn, turn, turn”, makes me want to turn, turn, turn the radio off!
Miley Cyrus just “covered” Zeppelin’s version of ‘Babe I’m Gonna Leave You,’ but it sounds more like someone recorded her on karaoke night at a Holiday Inn bar.
I hope to never hear, or speak of, this mess again.
Chris Fonseca, the “sit-down comic” (he has CP and does his act sitting, because he can’t stand without help) had a beautiful bit on Billy Ray Cyrus.
Went something like this: Billy Ray Cyrus’ voice has healing powers. There was this girl with CP who couldn’t walk, and her doctors had told her parents she’d never walk. Then one day, she was sitting by herself in a room, and “Achy-Breaky Heart” came on the radio. And a miracle happened! She stood up, walked across the room, and turned the radio off.
